Text .hmi file overview
An .hmi file is a text file that contains configured property values of a project element, such a screen. The file follows specific syntax rules, and it can be created or modified with any text editor, but the syntax must be followed.
Correctly formatted .hmi files can be imported to existing projects in
View Designer
.Object properties are described consecutively, divided in the following groups (if applicable):
- screen/popup/banner properties - general properties of the object
- state/color tables definition
- events configuration
- graphics elements/Add-On Graphics instances
- definition of user properties
See the general syntax of an .hmi file:
Screen | Popup | Banner [Name (only for screen and popup)] {
<screen/popup/banner properties>
<state/color tables definition>
<events configuration>
<graphics elements/Add-On Graphics instances>
<definition of user properties (only for screen or popup)>
}
